San Francisco, CA – December 15, 2020 – Smile, the developer of productivity applications for macOS®, Windows®, Chrome™, iPhone® and iPad®, today released an update for TextExpander, the popular typing shortcut tool for smarter communication. Teams and individuals using TextExpander will experience improved performance and a refreshed appearance.
TextExpander for macOS users will benefit from multiple features designed to improve productivity. This includes a cleaner, newly-updated user interface that blends seamlessly with macOS Big Sur and makes it easier to manage and navigate snippets.
To further improve user productivity, this update also introduces Quick Actions, giving faster access to one’s most-used snippets. Search directly from the menu bar more efficiently than ever before.
The new TextExpander for macOS also ships as a Universal Binary with full support for Apple Silicon / M1 Macs, allowing forward compatibility with the next generation of macOS devices.
“We’re excited to bring both Big Sur and Apple Silicon support to TextExpander for macOS,” said Greg Scown, co-founder of Smile. “We’re also thrilled with the new Quick Actions and the productivity improvements they enable.”
TextExpander lets you instantly insert snippets of text from a repository of emails, boilerplate, and other content as you type – using a quick search or abbreviation. Multiply your productivity across your team with TextExpander’s built-in sharing which keeps company communication current, accurate, and consistent with clients, customers, and one another.
